3: Flat plate re deformation
After talking about some conventional things, let's talk about PaiBot's black technology. First of all, we need to understand that PaiBot is divided into two parts: tablet computer+smart base. The combination of the two is the complete PaiBot. What's the purpose of this smart base? Let's have a look
There is a three-axis rotating head on the top of the base, which is covered with a protective cover. After turning on the power supply and pressing the unlock key on the back of the base, the protective cover can be removed. After removal, we can see that there are metal contacts inside, and the distribution is one-to-one corresponding to the metal contacts on the back of the PaiBot. Does it mean that they can fit together?
There is a metal nameplate at the bottom of the front of the base, on which the logo of Grapevine Technology is carved. Inside the surrounding hole is a 3W Bluetooth speaker, and below it is a MIC and indicator light. The green and white combination with the logo gives a small and fresh style.
The back of the base is relatively simple, with only one unlocking button and one Type-C port.
The bottom is the power key. Selecting the bottom can simplify the overall number of keys, and it can also prevent the shutdown caused by children's careless touch when using. A ring of rubber anti-skid pad is arranged around the periphery, which can effectively prevent the displacement caused by operation.
After turning on the power supply of the base and removing the protective cover, connect the metal contacts on the back of the panel to the base, and the PaiBot will turn into a child robot computer. At this time, the PaiBot will turn into a Bluetooth speaker to play voice.
4: Introduction to features and comparison with iPad
As children's computers, PaiBot and PaiPad are unavoidably compared with iPads when parents choose them to see which one is more suitable for children's use. To solve this problem, the author also specially found several scenes that children often encounter when using tablets to make actual comparisons to see who is the real child computer between PaiBot and iPad.
The first thing to compare is how to deal with the operation of the two tablets under various circumstances. For the iPad, the only thing it can achieve is automatic brightness adjustment and Night Shift mode. Although this can reduce the damage of the screen to children's eyes to a certain extent, it can not effectively let children develop good viewing habits. What about PaiBot? Is there anything remarkable about it? After the experience of the author, it is found that PaiBot not only has automatic brightness adjustment and eye protection mode, but also has the function of eye protection by posture and distance, PaiBot will use the built-in distance sensor to remind children and rotate the screen to remind them to keep their eyes at a certain distance from the screen. In addition, PaiBot will use the light sensor and angular velocity sensor to sense the children's use environment. If the light is too dark or the use posture is inappropriate, PaiBot will turn off the screen to prevent children from forming bad viewing habits. These functions are both interesting and practical compared with the iPad, and are worth praising. To sum up, in the process of using robot computer PaiBot or children's tablet PaiPad, Grapevine Technology has taken into account and taken friendly countermeasures against the possible damage to children's vision and spine development. For worrying about children's use of Pads in dark environment, face fitting and "Ge You Lie", PaiBot and PaiPad have solved the problem one by one.
Then let's take a look at the voice assistant. In the test, although Siri of the iPad can interact with children by asking questions, many times he does not answer the children's questions. When he asks basic questions, such as weather or schedule, it is OK. Looking up the dictionary or some daily questions, he is a little powerless. In contrast, PaiBot, It has a built-in Pai Genie voice assistant. Compared with Siri on the iPad, it can only provide simple voice interaction. Children can not only ask questions easily and pleasantly through the Pai Genie voice assistant, but also look up dictionaries and encyclopedias. With strong understanding ability, it can satisfy children's curiosity to ask more questions, and also enable them to develop the ability to acquire knowledge by themselves, Parents no longer need to worry about being asked why by children.
Of course, when I came here, someone would definitely make a rebuttal. The author will focus on what is the difference between Little Pai and Siri?
First: Siri pays more attention to the use of functionality to help users directly call information and resources, but the huge information carrying capacity does not bring more convenience to the use of Siri in real life.
On the other hand, Little Pai pays more attention to children's knowledge Q&A, learning help, and solving seemingly trivial but tedious small problems that drive parents crazy. Little Pai is totally dedicated to serving children, and information calling is more convenient and fast both in loading and content selection.
Second: Apple never paid attention to the group of children, never considered how to write a strange character when children asked Siri for help (in fact, the author strongly suspects that the complicated horizontal and vertical structure of Chinese side is enough to make Apple Lab collapse), and never explained the encyclopedia for children from the perspective of children. Little Pai did it.
More importantly, Little Pai is completely customized for children. When facing children's immature and even substandard voice wake-up commands, Little Pai can accurately recognize, while Siri can only catch the blind.
In addition, little Pai has a powerful function, which can command PaiBot to take panoramic photos by turning through voice commands. Little Pai lets children never need to pick out an unlucky person to control panoramic photos by standing outside the photos.
Why was the iPad popular in those days? This is mainly due to its openness. Users can easily download various applications or games they like to use or play through the App Store, which may bring great convenience to users, but this openness can be said to be devastating for children, who are growing fast mentally, It is easy to indulge in adult applications in the App Store if you are not careful. This is also the biggest headache for parents at present. Is there a better solution for PaiBot? Through the experience of PaiBot's children's app store, the author found that PaiBot has cooperated with many excellent domestic child care application developers to provide a comprehensive range of children's applications, including teaching software, games and entertainment. Compared with Apple Store, everyone has a complete range of applications, But the content is screened according to the needs of children and classified according to different age groups, and updated in real time, so that children can learn and enjoy in the front. More importantly, the APP content that adults usually use but do not want children to touch doesn't exist at all. Millions of parents are looking forward to Apple Store focusing on children, but Apple has inherited Jobs's style (see how Sect Leader Qiao treats his daughter), continues to ignore the possible bad guidance for children in order to enrich their own ecology, and believes that the emergence of PaiBot and PaiPad native app stores will finally give parents a child's computer that they can trust children to use.
With the growing development of the Internet, people can quickly access instant information through the Internet. However, due to the rapid development of the Internet, some vulgar content is also flooding on the Internet. Parents are beginning to be careful that children are forced to "hide" the browser because they accidentally see something they should not see on the browser due to curiosity, There are many iPad users among them. The most troublesome thing is that contemporary children are also extremely smart. It is a piece of cake to find out Safari. After all, Safari cannot be uninstalled as a system level application. PaiBot, on the other hand, has made targeted optimization for this problem. When it is detected that children are using browsers to search for sensitive content, the system will automatically shield them, And with the upgrading of the system, it will continue to optimize and increase the content, so that children have a clean online environment.
In addition, PaiBot also has a killer weapon, which is to control the device through Grapeview App. I believe many friends have seen the whole day when children pick up the iPad to play. Especially during the holidays, parents are also worried, but they can't watch their children's every move 24 hours when they have to go to work. As time goes by, another head bowed clan appears, PaiBot has taken into account what parents think, and has specially developed Grapevine Latitude App, through which parents can associate PaiPad and PaiBot to achieve control over children's use time and permissions, effectively preventing children from indulging in computers.
PaiOS In terms of entertainment, we have also screened the content of childcare and education. Many games or picture books are built in, which are fun and instructive. Children can teach and enjoy themselves through games at leisure. Of course, as a child robot computer, when children have played all the content, you can also expand and download the content in the PaiOS built-in app store, In terms of content, it can really give children a new and interesting use experience every day.
As a tablet for children, of course, there are cartoons, fairy tales and nursery rhymes that are both physically and mentally beneficial and interesting. In Little Penguin Paradise, children can choose their favorite cartoons to watch, which will reduce the pressure on learning. With PaiOS's eye protection function, children can not only relax, but also not be afraid of the eye damage caused by watching, It's really powerful, but there are all kinds of stories, nursery rhymes and music in Grape Listener. Are you still worried about finding stories for children with iPads at night? PaiBot solves your worries!
5: Summary
There has never been a lack of products in the area of childcare products, so why do parents worry that children will have bad problems when using products every day? This is mainly because most of the products on the market are not distracted. It is just a concept of sales volume, and few of them really use the facts. Maybe Grapevine Technology knows where the pain points in the parenting market are, and what parents really need, PaiBot is the best proof. The excellent holding feel brought by the integrated metal body, the deeply customized PaiOS that cooperates with major parenting application developers, the robot base with both playability and practicality, and the humanized Pai Genie voice assistant all fully reflect that all of PaiBot is designed from the perspective of contemporary children, The author believes that PaiBot is a "mentor" who can accompany children's healthy growth, and a child's computer that parents can really trust children to use.
Back to the aforementioned PaiPad, the current price of PaiPad is only 1999 yuan, while the price of PaiBot robot computer is 2999 yuan for 32GB version and 3499 yuan for 64GB version. If you are worried about your child's long-term use of the iPad, you might as well find time to experience PaiBot or PaiPad. Maybe some problems will be solved. Finally, the important news I want to tell you is that the first batch of PaiBots will be delivered on October 21, so parents in need can be ready to rush to buy.
